Validity Youtube Lecture Handouts PDF

The document discusses different types of validity in testing, including internal validity which measures what a test is intended to measure, and external validity which determines how well results can be generalized. It describes population validity as how well sample results can be extrapolated to a population, and ecological validity as how the test environment influences behavior. Construct, convergent, discriminant, content, criterion, predictive, formative, and sampling validity are also defined in the document.
